Ultrasound-Guided Sclerotherapy
A Non-Invasive Varicose Vein Treatment
Ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy is an innovative treatment option that uses precise ultrasound imaging to treat varicose and spider veins by targeting the underlying vein disease at its source. At Laurel Clinical, we use this advanced approach to deliver a sclerosing solution directly into the affected veins, causing them to close and gradually disappear over time. This technique not only addresses the visible signs of varicose veins but also provides relief from related symptoms like swelling and discomfort. By combining ultrasound technology with sclerotherapy, we’re able to offer patients a safe, effective, and minimally invasive option for both cosmetic and therapeutic vein care.

Crafting Your Treatment Plan
Your ultrasound sclerotherapy treatment at Laurel Clinical begins with a comprehensive consultation, offering you an opportunity to connect with your practitioner and discuss the best approach to alleviate your symptoms and enhance your quality of life.

The Ultrasound guided sclerotherapy experience
Laurel Clinical’s ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy treatment begins with a consultation with a friendly coordination team, where the practitioner reviews the customized treatment plan to ensure patient preparation and confidence.
The treatment itself begins by reviewing the need for any pain killers or pain relief gas. Using ultrasound imaging, your practitioner will locate the targeted veins with precision, guiding the injection to ensure optimal results. A sclerosing solution is then injected into the affected veins, causing them to close and gradually be absorbed by the body. This careful, guided approach allows us to treat the veins accurately while minimizing any discomfort.
The Recovery period
The recovery period after ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy is generally quick and straightforward, allowing most patients to comfortably resume their regular activities soon after their appointment. While some initial symptoms, such as minor swelling, redness, or tenderness, may occur at the injection site, these are typically mild and tend to resolve within a few days. The treatment encourages gradual improvement in both the appearance and symptoms of the treated veins, as the sclerosing solution causes the veins to close and be naturally absorbed by the body over time.

Potentials Risks& Side Effects
Complications and side effects of ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy are generally mild and temporary. Common side effects include minor bruising, redness, or tenderness at the injection site, which usually resolve within a few days. Rarely, more serious complications such as blood clots, inflammation, or allergic reactions to the sclerosing agent may occur, but these are uncommon and can be managed with proper medical attention. Following aftercare instructions and wearing compression stockings as advised can help minimize these risks.
